So making new laws to limit "the criminals'" ability to get weapons means nothing to them. Its just another law, and the fact they're criminals means that they have no problems getting around it...or break it entirely. I agree with North on this...there's not a whole lot of difference between the anti's and criminals.RabidAlienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07035887632706442114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577008135895208329.post-70881067963556736392012-03-05T13:22:11.079-08:002012-03-05T13:22:11.079-08:00Another one out of the park.

The criminals would rather we not have guns, so they can take what they want from us. Property/rape - taking what is NOT theirs.<br /><br />Along comes the anti. They want us unarmed because it is "better" for them, not for us. They want to take our God-given right to protect ourselves away - taking what is NOT theirs. <br /><br />I want to keep what is mine. The ugly criminal can't have it. The rapist can't have it. The foolish gray-haired MN liar can't have it.<br /><br />Criminals and antis are no different.Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12778737553770514684noreply@blogger.com
